I don't believe I'd be jumping on this bit of advice without
talking to my vet first. The tiniest amount of Dawn, even when
cleaning up animals after an oil spill, makes huge amounts of
suds. A "quarter cup"????????? I don't think so. I also don't
think your vet will tell you to put bleach on the bird either.
Be very careful.
